Abstract

Targeted metabolomic profiling of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) laticifers identified metabolites that were reprogramming by domestication, revealed active isoprenoid metabolism in the laticifers, and discovered loci with potential biosynthetic applications, supporting the potential of developing laticifers as bioreactors for production of valuable metabolites in Hevea.
